What are the rules for traveling and gathering?

• Non-Alaska residents traveling from outside the state must either submit a travel declaration and self-isolation plan through an online portal and arrive with proof of a negative test result, or purchase a COVID-19 test for $250 upon arrival and self-quarantine until they get the result. Alaska residents can either submit that online information and arrive with proof of a negative test, receive a COVID-19 test for free and quarantine until results arrive or self-quarantine at their own expense for 14 days or the duration of their trip, whichever is shorter. Health officials recommend travelers get a second test 5-14 days after their arrival and take other precautions. Find more information about travel requirements here.
